Laters!

if you want updates you need to go Nexus really.

Samsung are flavour of the month for the moment - but remember their FroYo release? It took about 3-4 months after HTC's release...

Failing that you just need to go AOSP with a custom rom - which you can do on almost any handset.

Perhaps you should address your goodbye to HTC directly :P

Good luck with your samsung things, grass isn't always greener and better in next door!
[Desire General] rumpelst:
Well update to Gb which HTC released is in my opinion great cause they just do everything they were able to port GB to desire and than just released it for developers. For some time we will have great custom roms with official Gb, alreadywe have SuperNova by Droidzone.
[Desire General] snakeeyes21:
The greener the grass the more s*it it contains ;)
[Desire General] Tseng17:
I love my Desire

I love the my Desire, and pretty sure it is going to be the Android phone I would use for at least 1.5 years.

The main reason being there are so many Desire users, the ROMs just keep coming and getting better. :D
[Desire General] lordjester:
Like op i've moved from a desire to a sgs2 for many reasons, mainly my contract was up and I didn't like the lag on the sensation screen! But what gets me is how many people keep going on about custom roms for the desire. Of course there are loads the phone is old in tech year's, I'm sure the same will happen to the sgs2 in about 6 months, but to be honest I don't find much difference between the 2 apart from never having to think about how many applications I can have. Ie running out of memory! As they say you pay ya money and make ya choice.
[Desire General] Thermaltake868:
I was thinking of selling my desire and buy a Sensation but when I read all those user comments about all the issues I changed my mind, sensation still have that nice look, but when we talk about software I cant say the same of what I hear, now I dont know what to do to keep desire and wait until they release some new phone wich will work normal, or give up of HTC and buy some other brand with android.
[Desire General] helterskelter:
True, but Samsung didn't promise Desire users Gingerbread and a new version of Sense and failed to deliver.

I got the Desire based on this, and know I feel they flipped the finger, so I can't really blame OP for ditching HTC.
[Desire General] lordjester:
I'm surprised google didn't have a word with them since google set out a baseline for all phone manufacturers that each handset should get at least 18 month's of updates? Therefore google is saying the max size each version of android is gonna be and the processing power requirements! It's like the htc wildfire this will never see gingerbread as it has the same if not less memory and power than the desire! Yet its a newer phone than the desire! Or is it google just doesn't care? And is letting phone manufacturers get away with it?
[Desire General] erklat:
Afaik Gingerbread was delivered 6 hours behind the schedule and Sense 2.1 was never mentioned by any credible source of information, but as it seems you collect your info from the same people who scream that release on their page is beta I kind of understand where you got that. o.O

I think this would be the most plausible choice.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
If I remember Google said 18 months where hardware allows....
[Desire General] acidxtreme:
Enjoy your next phone. I will also change my desire for the new SGSII. I have many problems with the desire´s motherboard.

Ciao
[Desire General] chris3cr:
I love when people talk about companies "promising" something and then moan when it doesn't happen. Reminds me of the old days in the school playground...

From what I can see, HTC did thier best to deliver, but unfortunately the constraints of the device stopped them being able to do more. What do people expect them to do, come over and upgrade the memory in each phone?

Some people just want the moon on a stick.
[Desire General] biggyt:
Note to OP, it's 'so long' not 'good-bye' :P
[Desire General] lordjester:
Therefore a pointless statement from google then! As we all know that in 6 months most tech is out dated! As for moaning about phone manufacturers having to upgrade old phones, I was happy with my desire on froyo, everything worked well and it did what i wanted. My point is htc should never have promised something it couldn't deliver (yet they have in an odd sort of way) truth be told most companies forget about products afters about 6 months! And move on...! It's a shame as most mobile contacts are at least 18 months! This is what upsets a lot of people!
[Desire General] Terepin:
What did you expected, pink unicorns?
[Desire General] 777ace:
IIRC, HTC never intended to release GB for Desire...it was only after a whole lot of *****-moaning from customers that they decided to do what they could...

We all knew from the outset that GB would not fit on Desire, it was the reason that devs like robocik, baadnewz et al had so many headaches creating their ROMs and getting them stable. Now that the release has been made, we have more *****-moaning from people that expected candy and rainbows to fall from the sky (and pink unicorns lol @ Terepin!).

Enjoy your new phone! I hear they are actually a pretty good piece of kit... Me...I'll be saving myself the money and holding onto my Desire for another twelve months, thankyou very much! :)

Hello,

I need a BIG digital clock for my lockscreen. Is there any out there esp for Visually impaired people??

Thanks a lot in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Sarmad23:
Well by default the time shows up pretty big but incase you want a bigger clock try Widget Locker. It's available in the Android Market. You can customize your lockscreen including how big you want the time to be displayed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Mr Woolf:
What he ^^ said.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] JohnrC:
Is there still no way to just add a big clock to the lock screen?

All searches for this turn up people recommending Widget Locker. But reading the reviews indicate heavy resource use, slowing down system, inconsistency between WL and home screen, etc.

Not to mention having to pay for something I need because of a visual impairment. Good grief. There are free apps to show you what shaking boobs look like, in case you haven't seen that.

I've tried LockBot but that's been flaky for me on the Samsung Fascinate. Freezing after entering password; sometimes not locking the device at all; etc. Too bad. It's all that's really needed. Activate the device, see the time and date. *See* the time and date.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jjangjojo:
So I have ported Cyanogenmod 7 over there are still quite some bugs here and there.

Bugs:

1) the market is the old one(greyish)and cannot update.

2) the firmware version is somwhat written as dxkb2 and build number is written as froyo.dxkb2.)have no idea why.

3) the adw settings are not listed in the main setting menu, they are in a seperate menu(like adw launcher, have no idea why as well??)

4) the notification bar is like the stock froyo's(probably because i have used some coded source codes of froyo as that is the only way to port as we do not have full gb source codes for our phone yet, there are also some files that are coded from the sgs9000 gb source. I have tried to code as much gb source codes that are compatible with our phone as possible but some still has to be replaced by froyo coded files)

These are the bugs i found so far.

I may keep updating this post so be stay tuned by keep checking this post!:D

Hit 'Thanks' if you want to!:)

what was that about the status bar again? and about the displayed version? dude, i changed hundreds of lines of code where statusbar is involved, read thousands, and what you say is so pointless.

well, i wish you get some people here to believe in you, i will report your post anyways, since this obviously is fraud...

but then again, this is xda - might take ages... so who cares
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dezz:
codeworkx is WRONG it is not "just a themed samsung rom."...

It is A samsung rom with CM wallpaper applied!!!

With all the love and respect Mr. codeworkx - but you really should apologize..

By the way big, big, BIG thumbs up to the who made porting possible to all. Now I am a Mr. Important Developer. I keep porting ROMs few time a day!!! and sometime I do 20-30 ROMs an hour!!! With my special porting tool built into my super ROMs.

You n00bs can try it out by long pressing the homescreen and selecting 'WALLPAPER'

under that msnu is hidden secret 'CM porting' script...

Yea. I could have asked didnt u know humans learn from their experiences. Well i did i even did lots of work and put in lots of effort. Yes, with all the info most people will think this is fake but even with knowledge that most people will say this is fake, i still created this thread. Well all comes to nothing. I guess just nobody appreciates me. Just when i thought i could help, people always take away all my hard work.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Huh? I assume you came here for? Post counts? It's fake, That's a proven point and no one needs to be apologizing for anything.

@jjangjojo I'm not here to troll you out, But atleast my doubt's came to an end when I realized you had doubt's about flashing and etc, also if major dev's couldn't do it, how come your able to achieve this. I've noticed you had everything taken screens of, all except the main facts that made up Cyanogen, The menu, The widgets and most of all Cyanogen runs off it's own kernel, Phone clearly has no sighting of that. Why miss out those important factors? Also how is this hard work? It's a deodexed firmware with wallpaper and changes made to it. Looks like a scam to get easy thanks and support.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
You can make it happen...first which is the source/guide you used for porting...you can ask for help...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jjangjojo:

Oh just to tell you. I do not care about post counts.

I pointed that out to dez, Not you. But thank's for taking the blame.

how about you post something that makes us trust you? of course not your super secret source code, but what about a screenshot of your work environment, while compiling a rom? i bet 500€ you cannot :P

It supports loop device. I just tried to mount a loop device with a loop image and it worked.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] XphX:
You are aware that ubuntu has no proper support for touchscreens; even if it runs you won't gain anything by doing that. When I installed a linux a few months ago on another device it worked, then I was fascinated about one minute and then I decided that there is no use for it an deleted it eventually.

I just do not understand why it is so important to get a desktop-os running on a smartphone. Battery drains fast, no support for the radio etc.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
Its not important, but funny and cool if it works (on this device). How did you do it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] XphX:
Until recently I still had my old samsung-omnia-winmo6.5-phone. There was an app for linux available; you just had to install an imagefile to the sd-card. The fun did last for a minute and then I realized I cannot do anything with this small screen and that it was pretty much useless.

I think that a lot of people here will just read the topic and think "omg this is amazing, now I can have my desktop-os on the phone, great" and later they realize how much time they just wasted.

If it really is fun for you guys, I won't try and stop you :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
How about using linux programs? i think that it may be quite useful sometimes... Put honestly... it is just for funright now... but it may be helpful if we could dual boot.... maybe in the future :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
I got this working, it isn't that slow as you could imagine, firefox takes around 30 sec to start and load the front page. That said, the keyboard works but is way off and impossible to use (I push "d" and "f" shows up and so on).

if anyone understand this the keyboard will be fixed:

In VNC’s xstartup file: $HOME/.vnc/xstartup

You have to add the line export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1 before

/etc/X11/Xsession or gnome-session (in case you use GNOME)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trevh:
The significance of linux running is to have a backup operating system to use on the phone if the Oracle / Google dispute over Java begins to really disrupt the market.

Think also freedombox.org, your own personal, secure and anonymous cloud system as a refuge if a dictatorship emerges or particularly nasty rise of corporatism occurs.

At heart, our U8800's can easily be linux box server with up to 32Gb of onboard storage with wi-fi AND gsm network connections. Being battery operated, if the thought police decend upon your community, you could take it to another place, unknown to the nasty guys, and re-establish mesh network connection to get reports of civil rights abuses out to the rest of the world.

Reason enough to have the capability to run Ubuntu Server edition (or any other Linux Server flavour)?

If you're interested to see what's already possible, even within Android (Linux will deliver more power), install "File Expert" from the market to get your very own web file server, right there in your phone. :)

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trindow:
Hi,

Ive searched all over the Xperia X1 forum without any answer.

Ive recently installed Android on my phone and i love it, especially android market.

My problem:

After installing like 5-6 apps from the market I get low on internal memory. How do I solve this? I know about Apps2Sd, but not all apps can be placed to sd card.

Is this my because of my internal phone memory or is it because my ext2 cache, data, system partitions are set to low storage?

How do you guys get through this problem?

Answers would be much appreciated, sorry if this already has been brought up.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
as long as there's no nand-flash for x1, internal memory is not used nor recognized by android.

those 3 partitions on sd-card are seen as internal memory by android.

so, your second guess is the right one - increase the size of your ext2-partition. ("data", to be precise)

COMING IN NEXT VERSION

I'm going to start using SL4A to do the heavy lifting. Writing for Tasker is exhausting and difficult. No new features will be added until V3, when everything will be written with Perl/bash; Tasker will be used only to support the Perl scripts. This gives me the ability to really use UI (show download progress, list cool menus, etc), and improve my own sanity! I get to write in a real programming language!

V2.1.x will contain bugfixes as reported by the community.

bug fix: S_volts_scheduler not restored correctly on new flash still - workaround in progress

This is pretty neat, I'm testing it on my Droid X right now.

I don't suppose there's any way to implement some sort of progress bar for the download? It's basically a wait-and-find-out process right now.
[Android Apps and Games] mi3x:
Care to elaborate please? I'm stuck at point 7 :) What profile should I create and how. Thanks! Looking forward to testing this. :D
[Android Apps and Games] strictlyrude27:
I can't do a progress bar, but I think I can do a toast notification of how much of the file was currently downloaded..

I plan on doing a rewrite with more robust options and capabilities, but it's kind of on the backburner for right now..

Let me know if you run into errors, please! I'm kind of surprised more people aren't using this setup..
[Android Apps and Games] strictlyrude27:
In Tasker, just hit the Plus sign on the bottom to start a new profile. Then select the first context you want the download check to fire. Like I said, I have mine set to fire at 4am every day. Then, set CM7_AutoInstall as the task to perform. Finally, long-press the first context once the profile is created to add more. I only want to have downloads happen when I'm power is connected.
[Android Apps and Games] mi3x:
Thanks, I guessed that was the way, but just wanted to be sure. Now looking forward to seeing CM7 build 16 today or tomorrow to test this. Will post my results. Many thanks again, nice work.

Another question, does it flash it directly over the existing build, or could you think of something to wipe cache before? I always wipe cache and dalvik as instructed in Q&A in CM thread.
